V. coerulea x V. Mimi Palmer
I bought this plant in March, 2008. Since then, all it did was nothing but growing. It is now nearly 2' tall and finally decided to bloom this year.
Although one of the parents is Mimi Palmer, I cannot detect any scent.

Those are wonderful. I too like the shape and colors; the vibrant color of the lip is especially attractive. Too bad about the lack of scent, but with V. coerulea as one of the parents and V. tessellata in the background of Mimi Palmer, at least it should have quite a bit of cold tolerance.
